    Puppet Combo Games

    Similar VHS aesthetic but focused on Western slasher horror. Games like The Glass Staircase and Murder House deliver retro terror.

    Paratopic

    Experimental low-poly horror with VHS filters. Non-linear narrative about smuggling cursed VHS tapes.

    World of Horror

    1-bit Japanese horror roguelike. While different aesthetically, captures Chilla's Art's Japanese horror essence and cosmic dread.

    Modern Horror with Different Style

    While Night At The Mall uses modern graphics, it shares Chilla's Art's focus on atmospheric exploration and psychological horror.
